Newcastle United 2-1 Brentford (02/04/25)


Recommended Posts

Great win in the end. Rode our luck a bit. But then so did they. 
 

Just hope Isak and Trippier were precautionary. As Isak is irreplaceable and Trippier was MOTM. 

 

Tino brilliant again until added time. Big Joe was a colossus.  
 

That felt a bit like our 4th placed season. We had games like that where we were nowhere near our best. But we found a way to win.

It was a really difficult match against an awkward opponent and a huge win in the context of Europe.

 

The worrying aspect is still our inability to kill teams off and miss chances, and the way we seem to be rocked so badly in second halfs when it all turns to chaos. 

 

Huge win all the same.

The sort of result you just need to get over the line after the cup final. Unconventional and nervy but just about deserved. A steely performance where a few players had yo be carried a bit, but we got there.

 

Pope: 6.5

Trippier: 8

Schär: 6.5

Burn: 7

Livramento: 8

Bruno: 6

Tonali: 9

Joelinton: 6

Murphy: 6

Isak: 6.5 Wilson: 6

Barnes: 7.5 Willock: 7

I feel like I saw a mirror version of Tonali's goal from the left hand side many many years ago by hasselbaink when he was at chelsea, does that ring any bells for anyone else?

Why must we suffer at the end of games so often man? [emoji38]

 

Massive result against a tricky team coming off the back of so much jubilation from the cup win.

 

A great platform to really keep pushing on the rest of the way now.

 

Such a good result.

This and the West Ham match are priceless results. Hopefully we will gradually move closer whilst our rivals drop off.

Get that disgusting Danish cunt and his travelling freak show out of my stadium and out of my city. 

 

There was one camera angle of him first half where he's full mouth open gobbing on chewing gum and I immediately thought. Right, that will send @Disco into fits. :lol:
